If you missed ZoŽís fundraising appeal for humanitarian and environmental charity TREE AID last weekend, youíll be pleased to hear that BBC Radio 4 is repeating it today, 17 January, at 3:27pm (UK time). In addition, itís available on Radio 4ís website.

During the appeal, ZoŽ speaks movingly about the Ďenormous struggleí communities in the African drylands face daily and how TREE AID, which sheís supported for over 20 years, is helping people in need to earn a living from looking after trees and selling their produce.

Last year, TREE AID released a video, narrated by ZoŽ, with more details about its work.

There are just a few days left to donate to the fundraising appeal, which ends on 17 January. Below, TREE AID has helpfully summarised the various ways you can give.

When ZoŽ takes part in TREE AID campaigns, Iím always reminded of her reporting about Comic Reliefís work in Africa in 1992, as well as Tessaís charitable work there for SEED during the first series of the BBCís hugely popular 90s TV drama, Love Hurts. Both projects are pictured in this extract from a magazine feature.
